Back again, my list of now 35 things I hope to accomplish by next August 15th. Some are simple, some are finite, some are ongoing. (See last year's list here.)
| 1. | Write letters to artists I admire: SARK, Tomie dePaola, Paul McCartney (for starters).
|
| 2. | Listen to more podcasts/online radio.
Some notables - I love love love Maccaradio; Pandora is cool; also digging Creative Mom Podcast and Spare the Rock radio show (via the awesome Kiddley) |
| 3. | Have regular (weekly would be lovely) artist's dates. |
| 4. | See these movies: Brother Sun, Sister Moon; The Agony and the Ecstacy, Waking Life. |
| 5. | Walk/bike whenever possible, instead of using the car. |
| 6. | Take up yoga again. |
| 7. | Make a puppet FOR MYSELF. |
| 8. | Revamp online store to have prints, new cards, and everything all under one roof. |
| 9. | Go out on regular dates with Paul. :) |
| 10. | Research licensing for my artwork. |
| 11. | Donate artwork for charity. |
| 12. | Try to get my artwork sold in local stores. |
| 13. | Record a song — either with Paul, or by myself, a cappella, in parts. |
| 14. | Go to the dentist. |
| 15. | Get a physical. |
| 16. | Walk every day. |

| 18. | Write in Peter's, Angela's and Sophie's journals. |
| 19. | Read and complete the work in Walking in This World - the sequel to The Artist's Way (which I did on my Big 33 List) |
| 20. | Try to live responsibly - saving as much energy as possible; eating/feeding my family as organically as we can; recycling as much as possible - and teaching the kids about it. |
| 21. | Go on a retreat. |
| 22. | Get Christmas stuff done very early so I can enjoy Christmas. |
| 23. | Keep up the morning pages/journaling every day. |
| 24. | Have more of my artwork hanging up around the house. |
| 25. | Fix up studio the way I want it.
Cleaned, organized, and working on hanging up pictures. |
| 26. | Fix up purple room (the room I work in) the way I want it.
Room is cleaned out, sketches for window seat to come! |
| 27. | Focus on being content with where my life is right now, this instant. |
| 28. | Plan a vacation for our 10th wedding anniversary. Sans children. |
| 29. | Sell out the rest of my Christmas cards. People, I am so serious here. |
| 30. | Finally take all those Muppet quilt squares people made me for Sophie's baby shower and sew them into one rockin' quilt. |
| 31. | (Private painting note - will post when it's done.) |
| 32. | Sunscreen. Every day. |
| 33. | Participate in a fund-raising event/donate to a cause I feel strongly about. |
| 34. | Get my artwork shown in a gallery. |
| 35. | Say hello or good morning with a big smile to people I pass on the street - whether I know them or not. |
So what's on your list?
